Wkra I laid I was an aeronaut, I abonid kare said a parachute Jumper. It it a danserous trndo, but a fellow caa make a good deal of money by It to a few yeara If be doesn't have tbe bad luck to Rct ainashed by a fall. Tba aTcrage life of a parachute jump¬ er, after be goes Into tbe trade. Is two ytart. Tbey generally get killed by aomt tort of carelessness o( their own, oaaally tome neglect to see tbat the paracknta will open all right, bnt I tallawtd tht trtde (or Ore yetrt witb¬ oat accident.
I wat always ctre(nl to examine all tke flslngt o( ihe btg tnd the umbrella HyteK, and yet In tplte o( my care I wat growing more and more reckless Without (nlly teeing It, I could not btar to disappoint tbe people, and took too many chancea In tbe way o( waatktr, but everything went till last SnittBibtr. I engaged with the mana- goia of the Cblpatbee Annnal Fair to make tlia ascent every day while the akow wat going on.
Wklla I was In tbo oir the drst time I noticed tometbing I didu't like, and ttat wat the spread ot tbe forest sonth af tbe town, whicb extended, with ailghty (ew clearings, as (ar ns I oonid tee, A large (orest Is one of our want enemies, (or In descending. If tke wind lauds tbe parachute iu n grore. It It sure tu catch on the tops 4tf tke trees, nnd tbe poor aeronaut. <!0miBg to such a sudden stop, often lotet hit teat, ond gets rnugbt on a limb, or goes crashlu;; lo the ground. If by chance bu escapes getting bis neck broken, his Imllooti and pnrn- chute still remain onti-prcnd on the fclgbeat branches of the trees, nnd to get tbem down wllboiit tcarlus lakes timt tnd labor.
For tbree days I mnde good trips, for tkt wind eontluued tu bluw from tht toutb, thus carrying mo awos from tho womls, Pridny morning I atood 00 tbe (air grounds, cougratulnt- lag uyseK on tha One weather I bad kad so (ar, aud hoping It miglit re¬ main calm till Saturday night—Satur¬ ilay aftemoon was to be my last atcen- aloa at thia place, but now tho air kad an untettonable and suspicious btat tnd calm. I wat to go up at 4 a'dock, tnd tt 8 It was pretty clear tkat a tbunderslorm was near; Indeed. It teemed to near that I Iben hoped II would come and go be(ore ascension ttaM.
Tkt air, howerer, remained In the aama ttlll, brooding, electrical condl¬ tloii. And at 3.05 o'clock, wbeu 15,000 or 90,000 people were expecting me to go up, tha ttorm teemed near. If It abould not come, tbe people would think me a rank coward in case I did aot go up, and the fair managers migkt kold back my money; and aliove all, my ropnlatlon as a man who could kt depended ou to ascend as adver- tited would tuffer.
tt wtntcd three mlnules to I, the ad Ttrtlted bour, when I gave my aaslst- ant tbe word to let go the guys, and iu tbt next Instant the earth and tbe crowd o( people liegan to sink. ITp I wenlt Tbe air was so slill and calm I aeemed to be (loatlug away. It Is a dtllght(ul sensalloo. and I bad learned to love my balluou and ber easy, bird Uka flight.
I rote rapidly, and after gaxlnn ISown at the old earth awhile, touk off my cap aud wavml It. Tben I (ler- tonned a lew simple feats on tbe tra- peat har, wheu the balloon sbot up Iato a tlif hi current of cool air. At tba tke aame momeut I noticed a .movement in the lowering bot vague clond to Ihe noriU. aud was siruck With (ear that the storm was aliuut te burst (orth.
I alatott coucludt-d to drop then and thtcc, bat I was nul more than SOO feel frum tbe earth, and tbe very same toar of being taken fur a coward which kad aent me up uow kept me ascend¬ ing. At the same lime tbe cool draft at air was carrying me towani the for- tbt at no great speed.
Bat In a (ew more seconds of ascent I wat oat o( tbal cool apace and going ap throagh air which bad not yet N>- gua to share In any degree Ibe stmib- wtrd mothiu o( the advancing storm. Up I went lill I bad prubably nachtMl ISOO (eel o( aliltude. my uaual na. caat. Tben tbe growing cloud In the ¦ortk IKled wilh wonderful siieed ttll tt Igtaai over Ibe sky alwve me. and k*l|^ Hgblalng airMgged down from tkt aealth to two divergent atn-akt. In tkt tkallerlog thunder that foi lowed I pulled the cord ef the r^ra- ckata aad dropped.  '
I wat not (rlgkteaed mack. I tbougiit
It likely I still bad time to Soat down before tbe coming of tbe tornado, al¬ though I thought tt must lie blowing hard overbend. Tbe storm was, as It were, a vast advancing baud, half- open, tbo pnlm down and the lingers thrust ont above me. Tbe palm or wrist, I tbought, would not reach me laan-.
As the parachute opened out and my sp«ed slackened I begon, as usual, to look out aud up for tbe danger that threatens a parachute at every descent.
After tbe parachute Is cut loose Ihe balloon. If unweighted, will float for miles ont across tho country before flnally overturning and tumbling back to the earth. Wben It has reached Ibc ground, some one must take a trip to bring It in with team and wagon. This means a loss of time and money, to avoid which a heavy weigbt It at¬ tached to tbe top of tbe balloon, and this causes It to turn over soon sfter It Is (ree.
Now a balloon with this weight at¬ tached to it Is a pretty heavy tblu;;, and If, In (ailing. It happens lo miss tbe parachute, all rigbt! But If It hap¬ pens to crash down Into tbe slow- falling umbrella. It Is all over. Noth¬ ing but a miracle can save the men.
A(ter I bad parted company with the balloon It hovered above mc for n little time, as If striving to regain Its balance, th6n It suddenly turned over. Immediately tbe gas escaped out of the hole at the top of the Inverted bal¬ loon, and It began to descend. Slowly It came nt first, ihen faster aud fustor as it grew more empty. ' I sat iu tbe trapeze wntchlng It so intently that I forgot aliont the c.v- clonlc 'Wind which wan throatonlu.i; me, Down catue the balloon lu ii kI^- xag line. Would It strike ine? For n few seconds I could not tell. Then It pnssed about twenty feet to the right of me, wriggling and flapping, and nt that very moment tbe lightning llnKhoiI terribly again, and sucb a rattling nnd rending thunder sound nn followed I 1 ever heard since nor before. At tbnt time I must bnve boon 800 or 001) foot above tbe ground.
Down, down I wcut! Tho earth seemed to be rush up toward me—the Mile silver streams of wator. the bouses, bnms, trees nnd ponds, 'i'ho only thing Hint wns lossonlui; In np- pnrent sliso wns the balloon, whicii rushed down almost directly bonoatli nnd awny from uie, until suddonly it begnn to behave strangely.

I'lylng along tiiwnrd tbo south, I grnaped the rope on tho opposite side from which tho para¬ chute wns tipping, nnd ^iiit nil my weight on It. With n lurch kIio nenrly righted, bnt only for nu Instant, nml Ihcn wout uver again, this tlino going farther tbnn liefnre. Still I huug on for dear llfo. hoping Ibnt my weight would siralgblen us np in a Inll, but Ihc next instant tbo wiud. striking tlo canvas on Ihe under slilo, sont ns ovor.
Just bow It bapiH'neil. or what my p sitlun was. I uevcr know, for I was In a confusion of rupos and rili.s nml linen lu an Instant. My fri;:lit mnst have craxeil mo for a fow inlnntos, al¬ though I sllll clung to tbo ropos.
The first thing I cnu recall after thnt was Ihe sense thnt tbe wlud bad lilnwii the parachute nenrly Inslilc out, nml the sharp atraiu bad snapped two ur three o( the cords. No Ihat now wo wore a confused ninas of canvas, rain. ropes nnd mnu, nil llylug on a Uirmidii at n terrible rnto, and I gasping for breath; nnd nlways tho earth was coming nearer.
I ImagliuHl I nnw my hmly after It ahould alrike Iho ground or lund, n ahapeless thin,; of Uosli and Ihiiios Tbe thought sickened me, aud I olum d my eyea to shut oul the sight of Ibo dim earth.
It ts ninsxlng how rapidly a man's brain will think In suoh niomonis. No sooner bad I cluwd tuy oyos than I aaw Ibe old boiuoatend In Ohio, look¬ ing exactly ns It-did the uigbt I loft It, len yonra ago. I saw a Imy of slx- tii'U cautiously oruwllug out of a soo ond slory wludow ou lo tho porch. On r><ncblng tbo odgo bo easily slid down one of tbo corner (losta nnd lauded on Ibe ground. Here, alipping Into his sboes, be gnve ouo la>t look nt tho house and stole out Iuto tho shadows «r.d darkness. Just whnt tho iioxt aoi'Ue wuuld be I oannol say, for I was suddenly twisVod in suoh a way that nearly all my weigbt camo mi nno miH'. which lustnnlly snapixil and lot ouo of my fool loiMh'.

I Jerked my other foot luuae. su I
conld go down feet flrst; then shut mf eyes as I breathed a silent prnyer, just ns blinding flnsbes lightened above me. Tbe next moment, amid the thunder and a great, fresh gust of rain, something seemed fo reach up at me. There was a crnsh as I met It and then I became senaclesa.
Wben I regiilned consciousness tbe sky wns blue nbovo mc and the sun wns nenrlng the horizon In mists of groat glory.   Looking aljout me I fonnd
was lying on or tn Ihe balloon, which bad been blown against tbe top of a large, spreading oak in eucb a wny tbnt the bng completely covered tho higher branches. Qn thin huge can¬ opy I bad been flung down, faillug Into a sort ot hollow between two branches, or more likely lieen shaken Into that hollow liy tbe gale nn It bat¬ tled with tbe outspread balloon, which was mucb tom In places, nnd would probably have been blown away In shreds had the tornado not passed so quickly. It Innted not twelve minutes, as I nfterward learned, Tos- sibly I might hnvc dropped right Ihrongb tbe stuff, hut for the fact tbat the oak was greatly overgrown with a huge grapevine.
As soon as I tried to clamber out of tbnt bollow I found my right leg was broken, lioth bones, right here bolow the knee; my loft nnklc badly sprained, my right side severely bruised, and every bone In my body aching from the great jar I bad un¬ dergone.
For nearly bnlf nn hour I lay out¬ stretched on my nlry bod, my bands still entangled nmong tho ropes, near¬ er doad thnn nllve; thon I board a voice shout.."Here Is B. right over this big onk!" fcnd I knew a search party had found the balloon. I shouted Ibon. Thoy wore greatly nninzcd to Hnd me, ns well ns my nppnrntus there. llow dill Ihoy get me down?
But bofore ho had fairly begun to explain tbe process tho expected train whiHtled, Ibo group broke up, and thnt wns Ibe last I honrd or saw of the yuuug paruchute jumper. — Youth's Companion.
